The filter assembly (10) includes a ba se (18) mounted in the refrigerator ceiling (12), a manifold (20) pivotally mounted on the base (18), a filter cartridge (22) attached to the manifold (20), and a cover (24) pivotally mounted on the manifold (20) so as to be movable between open and closed positions. When the cover (24) is opened, th e filter cartridge (22) is angled downwardly from the ceiling (12) for easy grasping by a person for replacement of the cartridge (22).
